Sonic Life, Guido Chiesa. (in English and Italian)
This is an Italian publication by Sonic Youth's long-  
term friend and fan Guido Chiesa. It consists mainly
of a number of interviews that he has done with the
band over the years linked by biographical stories.
Also included is an incomplete and sometimes incorrect
lyrics section together with a partial discography.
I think it's pretty poor value for money. True, it does
have lots of neat pictures, but there just isn't enough
original written material in it. This is a real shame
because Mr.Chiesa seems to have much more Sonic heart 
than Mr.Foege. It does come with a CD which has a live
Shaking Hell and the superb Little Jammy Thing on it.
